Infrared Sauna Frequently Asked Questions

If you haven't used it yet, our Sunlighten sauna is quite different to the traditional hot-rocks-and-water experience.

Here are a few frequently asked questions:

What does it do?

The first thing most people notice is a stress-relieving relaxing of the muscles. Tension melts away, and the deep penetrating warmth is very soothing on aches and pains.

With regular use you will notice the benefits of a deep, healthy sweat that purifies the body and improves circulation. After the first session, people often notice clearer skin and a deep, restful sleep.

What does it feel like?

In contrast to traditional high-heat saunas, Solocarbon infrared heating is highly customisable, so you can enjoy a deep, detoxifying sweat at lower, more comfortable temperatures.

Like it hot? That's fine too - now you have the choice.

Infrared - is that like a Microwave/UV?

Unlike tanning beds, Sunlighten saunas use infrared heating, which is entirely different to microwaves, or ultraviolet UV radiation.

Infrared heat is safe and healthy for all living things. Far from a new technology, infrared heat has been used in a variety of health and human movement applications for many years.

Sunlighten saunas use a refined heating technology called Solocarbon, which is used in days spas, gym, training studios and health practices worldwide.
